Package: libthreadar-dev (1.4.0-2)

C++ classes for manipulating threads (development files)

Libthreadar is a C++ library providing an abstracted set of C++ *classes* to manipulate threads in a very simple and efficient way from your C++ code.

It also handles exceptions thrown from a thread and propagated to another one, when the later is calling the thread::join() method. This let one manage exceptions as simply as it is in C++ single threaded context.

Additionally, all the related objects around multi-threading (mutex, semaphore, etc) are provided, under easy to use and independent C++ classes. Other more advanced classes ease the information exchange between threads like scattering and gathering a collection of objects between many threads, or asynchonous buffered information exchanges between two threads.

libthreadar allows the dar package to provide multithreaded encryption, compression, and remote repository access.
